listening to something "ironically" because it's so hilariously bad that it's fun to listen to is just a way of enjoying the music, so it's actually not ironic at all because you DO enjoy it in some way.

I know music is 100% opinionated, but it really pushes my buttons when I go to play some classic Maiden or Judas Priest or whatever, and my friend walks over, disconnects my iPod, plugs his in, and proceeds to play some crappy Avenged Sevenfold or Bullet for My Valentine.

His reason?

"If a song is older than me I don't want to hear it."

Abufikatoo good point.

Now that made me laugh cardfan, try playing something you know for a fact he hasnt heard of or find something that he likes and see if he knows it was created before he was born. Everyone loves Hendrix right? Though depends how old you :D

Yeah but that technically makes no sense. If you enjoy what you hate, I'm confused.

The whole ironically buying music is what my mate does, the one I mentioned on the last page. He buys shit like the Final Countdown, the Erasure song from unicorn attack. He then goes on about how many records he has; quality over quantity any day. He only goes to charity shops too, which is the worst place to buy music because it's always shit people didn't want.

Your friend is a schmuck. Avenged Sevenfold has their moments, but they only WISH they could be half as good as some bands that were around before your friend was born...

I've also found awesome collections, from someone who either got religion and threw out all their "devil music" or from someone throwing out their kids old records. I agree mostly junk in there, but there has been at least three times I can remember hitting a pretty great motherlode of decent vinyl.

I kinda agree, I know their stuff is intended to be horrible but some of their songs actually do have some really groovy riffs in it. But stuff like "Your Kid Committed Suicide Because You Suck" is just too funny to not listen to.
